Und als wäre es nicht schlimm genug, dass eine rechtsextreme Partei 20,8 % der Zweitstimmen und 15 % der Wahlkreise gewinnt, verzerrt diese Karte den Anteil der von der AfD gewonnenen Wahlkreise deutlich. 15 % der Wahlkreise stehen 30 % der Fläche gegenüber - also das Doppelte.

In Germany 62% of voters named the protection of democracy and the fight against right wing extremism as the most important problem. There is hope people!

#Etmaal25 in the books! Was very happy to present and get input on our first insights on how citizens cope with societal threats. Already looking forward to next year!

Does loneliness correlate with support for the populist radical right? In the Netherlands, yes-lonelier individuals were more likely to support the PRR across 15 years of data (2008-2023), with effect sizes comparable to health correlates of loneliness. (1/9) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Why do voters often not mind negative or uncivil campaigns—is it for a lack of better electoral alternatives? 🧵 In my PhD study “The Fleeting Allure of Dark Campaigns” (w/ @lindabos.bsky.social & @alessandronai.bsky.social) we test this idea: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... #polcom #commsky

Kiezers vinden immigratie ongeveer net zo belangrijk als energiekosten en klimaat. Ze zijn er alleen minder bezorgd over en ervaren immigratie als minder bedreigend dan energiekosten en klimaat. - @bnbakker.bsky.social, @gijsschumacher.bsky.social en ik op Stuk Rood Vlees. shorturl.at/dKRXZ
